How Soon is Best?

New moms always wonder how soon they should have their babies First Portraits created. Here at Johnston Photography within the first 10 days is ideal, however we welcome your new little bundle when you are comfortable with it. Our reasoning is this- When a child is first born they are all curled up and sleepy. After a week to 10 days they have started to stretch out, sleep less and baby acne tends to show up. Newborns look like newborns scrunched and sleeping. They are moldable and easier to pose when have a full tummy and are sleeping or as we call it a “milk coma”.
If you or someone you know are expecting please pass this information along. Every maternity session we do, a FREE newborn session is included. We also make a great baby shower gift and registry. Call for more information. 815-459-1481 or 800-919-KIDS
